BEEF THE LUXURY OF THE AGE.

The most expensive luxury of the
staple human foods of the present day
is beef, thinks the Field and Farm.
The poor man can no longer afford to
eat it. The price charged for 1t is al
most prohibitory. While waiting for
a loin cut the other day we inquired
of the Teuton butcher who was serving
US, what per cent was made on beef
these days. "Val," said he, "about
fifty per cent from what we pay" So
we conclude that a bullock that cost
when bought from the producer thirty
dollars, was expected to bring forty
five dollars, ere it left the block of the
butcher. That will be all right when
we are all rich and can stand it.
Could the farmer whose cattle are
disposed of for the paltry price now
offered follow them on into the retail
market, and see the prices the unfor-
tunate city consumers pay for what he
feels that he has almost given away,
his eyes would bulge out with aston
ishment. Tenderloin, sirloin and por-
terhouse steaks at 20 cents, choice
roasts and rounds at IA cents and COM
mon roasts at 10 cents are current
prices in all our city markets. These
prices are under the circumstances
simply out rageous; and when it is re-
membered that the bulk of the cattle
slaughtered are bought at $500 per
cwt. and under, the imposition is more
glaring. Consumers are getting no
part of the benefit of the sacrifice be-
ing made by cattle-growers and we
ont y wonder that they submit in patti
enee to the extortion practiced upon
them by the retailers of meats

but prevents it. Sailors make daily
